Can anyone recommend something with a similar Raph Koster-esque design philosophy?

I dont know what that is but if you want something like Star Wars Galaxies, it doesn't exist and we've been chasing the dragon for a while hoping for something similar

here's a little knowledge bomb for ya, an idea if you will:

those games were good because the ideas were brand new. not because the actual mechanics were good

"sandbox MMO" in 2017 means open PvP basically

i actually like open PvP in theory, but if thats all the game is then it ends up not being a ton of fun as an MMO

I liked the part where you went combat medic and gave the entire raid v raid terminal fatigue aids with 1 spell, it was 5V5 ESPORTS FUCKIN RAD!!!

also: SWG would have been much more successful if it wasn't a reskin of EQ1 engine lol

It is a good argument from SI that to combat zerg-balling this kind of power should be in play. At the time of the mentioned incident the glyphs were really lovely and hard to see (this has been changed).

In hindsight it's funny as gently caress, and not really a problem with the game. The game is, however, lacking in many areas outside of anti-zerg.

like kill 1 million skeltals this is the game

Pretty sure eonwe is still our guild leader and if he says it sucks and we shouldn't play, we shouldn't question the Dear Leader.

SWG's crafting and resource gathering system was quite good and I would stand it favorably on it's own against any modern competition. Not perfect, but it had a whole lot of positives going for it. Lots and lots of other stuff was hilariously poo poo and terrible, but that system was really good.

...and then CU happened and welp forget all that.
